Supreme Court room was crowded again to-
day In anticipation Of q decision upon the
motion for writ OF error In the case Of the
Chicago Anarchists. 1t was thought that Mr..
Justice Miller might perhaps announce the
decision and read tho opinion. and when his
turn came the court room was absolutely still.

his first words. The judgments which he an
nounced had, however. no relation to the case
which was In every ones mind, and It was not
until tho reading Of opinions had been con-
cluded that any reference to that case was
made. The Chief Justice thon said that tho
Court hoped to DO ready to announce It's de-
cision upon the motion OF Spies and others for
writ OF error by Wednesday OF this week. and
certainly BY Thursday.
There was no decision to- day Of the prohibi-
tion cases from Kansas. and the opinions gen.
orally were not Of general public interest.

tise at the Supreme Court bar that the petition
for writ Of error will be denied. but this be-
